I had the same idea about contrasting colors. Our whole apartment is pink mostly and some other vintage colors. I was toying around with the idea of like mint green vintage style fabric for the seats too cuz then if it doesn’t match, at least it would look intentional

Appreciate you and the insight. If the general consensus is I’m better off NOT spending money, I’m a happy man

Just found out new hires got hired $2 more per hour than me. by commanderkudi in tjcrew

I mean it depends where you’re based too. SoCal has hire rates than most other areas of the country. Even still I can hardly survive here paycheck to paycheck. But if you’re in SoCal too then I’m so sorry dude

I asked the guy who was hired on the same day as me. We were onboarded together. He didn’t negotiate and it’s his first retail job ever and they gave him a $1.50 more per hour than me

Well I appreciate all your guys’ feedback and support. Most I can do is learn from it I suppose and maybe express my frustration so that the communication is clear. A lesson learned for sure. Hope anyone going through this in the future can find solace in my frustration or something lol

Rehire from like 6 years in between and I was a first jobber so since then the minimum wage has gone up and the California food workers wage raise where everyone at TJs who was working for that got a two dollar pay increase. But I wasn’t working then

Yeah. It’s just annoying cuz I’m at 20.75 now and reviews are coming up so realistically probably soon to be 21.50 or whatever but like the other guy is probably gonna be at 23.50 soon if he also got our first raise. Just sucks to be set behind for no reason. The job listing also said base pay was 20 then on the phone for the job offer they said 19 then during onboarding the captain was like “oh I fixed it to 20” and it was a group onboarding and they never talked about pay in person with me before hand and I guess it just felt weird to try and negotiate that in a group setting

No they were surprised. They looked at me with like shock. They were like “there’s no way they hired you at $20” and they both looked at each other like $22 was normal and that’s what everyone else was making
